what the position is of other countries on that topic. - joining us on the show tonight are our pannelists, jennifer carroll who served as the 18th lieutenant governor of florida and tom peck — who's a parliamentary sketch writer at the times. first — the latest headlines. qatar's prime minister says indirect negotiations on a ceasefire deal and the release of hostages in gaza have largely stalled. sheikh mohammed al thani, whose country is one of the mediators between israel and hamas, said talks were in a "delicate phase". president biden has said there will be no trade war with beijing, despite indicating he wants to raise tariffs on imports of chinese steel and aluminium.

he's expected to tell unions he wants tariffs tripled to 25%. a boeing engineer who fears parts of the company's 787 dreamliner planes could break apart in mid—air has been testifying at a us senate hearing. sam salehpour filed a whistle—blower complaint injanuary, saying the company cut corners. boeing disputes his claims and insists its jets are safe. the heaviest rainfall to hit the gulf region in seven decades has continued to cause disruption at dubai airport. the airport, which is the second busiest in the world, said it was facing very challenging conditions and advised passengers not to turn up. the three russian missiles that slammed into the centre of the ukrainian city of chernihiv this morning killed at least 17 people. and injured sixty others. it would not have happened had ukraine received sufficient air defence equipment. but seemingly there is a difference, at least in the eyes of some house republicans,

between the russian attacks on ukrainian cities and the iranian attacks on israel. in spite of the obvious alliance between moscow and tehran. these republicans would readily send aid to israel. but, on the urging of donald trump they attach an endless string of conditions to the aid that has been earmarked for ukraine. this afternoon embattled house speaker released the text of his four—part proposal to circumvent the obstacles the hard liners have put in his way. he has split the aid to israel, ukraine and taiwan into three different bills, with a fourth that would seize russian assets, force a sale of tiktok and impose sanctions on iran. some of the assistance to ukraine would be conditioned as a loan, along with mandates for military strategy and oversight. the fate of these newly unveiled bills, and of the speaker's tenuous hold on the gavel, will become clearer as the week goes on. but there are significant risks. it could well cost speaker johnson his position.

iam not i am not resigning and it is in my view, an absurd notion that someone would bring this when we are simply trying to do ourjobs and it is not helpful to the cause and not helpful to the country, it is not helpful to the house republicans and agenda which is in the best interest of the american people of a secure border and some governance and it's not helpful to the unity that we have. ok so lets get into what we know about these bills and whether the speaker has the numbers. leigh ann caldwell, live anchor at the washington post is with us. for this question is, can they get the first on these bills? that is what we are — the first on these bills? that is what we are all— the first on these bills? that is what we are all waiting - the first on these bills? that is what we are all waiting for, he | what we are all waiting for, he definitely doesn't have enough republican votes and there are a lot of republicans were furious and they're demanding that the southern

border with mexico be secure before more american aid is sent to places like ukraine and is going to lose a lot republican votes in the key is put the democrats do and democrats are signalling support for these bills and there is a lot of ups and downs they can still take place between now and when this vote was going to be held on saturday but these are definitely speakerjohnson buzz buzz huge tests they could lose his job over at. buzz buzz huge tests they could lose hisjob over at. find buzz buzz huge tests they could lose his job over at— his job over at. and the timeline is re his job over at. and the timeline is pretty tight — his job over at. and the timeline is pretty tight and — his job over at. and the timeline is pretty tight and the seven, - his job over at. and the timeline is pretty tight and the seven, they i pretty tight and the seven, they must follow would bring us to saturday and congressional delegations that is scheduled to leave town this weekend, does this affect his numbers? it leave town this weekend, does this affect his numbers?— affect his numbers? it could. that is a big concern _ affect his numbers? it could. that is a big concern and _ affect his numbers? it could. that is a big concern and the _ affect his numbers? it could. that is a big concern and the house - is a big concern and the house is supposed to go out for a passover week on thursday and there is a lot of delegations that are headed to

africa, the middle east and all of the world and these things get delayed and it happens before but will see, the members are to be super motivated to state to vote and he could very well impact the numbers and people are furious that it took them so long to make a decision and this is running into the weekend and this is running into and interfering with these delegations that are going on trips overseas. it delegations that are going on trips overseas. , . ., delegations that are going on trips overseas. , . . ., . overseas. it is clear tonight and the statements _ overseas. it is clear tonight and the statements made, - overseas. it is clear tonight and the statements made, it - overseas. it is clear tonight and the statements made, it is - overseas. it is clear tonight and - the statements made, it is meeting thatis the statements made, it is meeting that is as real life consequences and they wouldn't normally supply enough air defence and the pixel system is key to that in the longer the delay, the more lives reported risk. , , ., . risk. edges hits of the argument that this is _ risk. edges hits of the argument that this is happening _ risk. edges hits of the argument that this is happening here - risk. edges hits of the argument that this is happening here in i that this is happening here in congress and the epi was sitting look, it is way past time to the

united states to send this aid and then, you have the other people who have been in borisjohnson's a year where he has to leave this because he is been listening to people who don't want any aid to go overseas and this term we are hearing over and this term we are hearing over and overagain, are and this term we are hearing over and over again, are you church hill or are you chamberlain? and this is a theme that is been going on especially this week as speaker johnson has had to make a decision if he is going to bark at the right flank of his party and move forward with ukraine aid and he's gotten a lot of briefings recently that have made it clear what he needs to do which is to fund ukraine and is a lot consequences for him in order to do it. ., . . ., . . . . do it. you are a patriot and a naval officer. do it. you are a patriot and a naval officer- and _ do it. you are a patriot and a naval officer. and you're _ do it. you are a patriot and a naval officer. and you're also _ do it. you are a patriot and a naval officer. and you're also a - officer. and you're also a republican, do you see any difference between the attacks on

end of the impeachment will fail and maybe they're not taking accountability either. this impeachment, _ accountability either. this impeachment, most i accountability either. try 3 impeachment, most people even most republicans say that this is baseless impeachment and this is something that was done in the house of representatives because they were unable to find evidence to impeach president biden and said this was the next best thing, border security has become one of the top issues among american voters and republicans wanted to delve into that and i highlight that, they wanted to impeach him. what is happening in the centre right now is they're moving very quickly and expeditiously to dismiss this entire process and republicans, a group of republicans, not all, but some of them wanted to use this as a way to highlight the failures on the border and this is, impeachment is always a

political process and this is more political process and this is more political than usual. i wanted to touch on the donald trumps criminal trial in new york. a recess today, so no jury selection. they have picked seven jurors picked so far. five jurors and six alternates, still need to be picked. they reckon they might get there by the weekend. but it is the character of these jurors and the questions they are being asked that so fascinates me. they were asked yesterday what podcasts they listened to. what political programmes they watch. they managed to find a juror who had no knowledge of his other indictments — and it is amazing how many get their news only from twitter and tik tok. use speak to an interesting point about— use speak to an interesting point about this, — use speak to an interesting point about this, you _ use speak to an interesting point about this, you get _ use speak to an interesting point about this, you get a _ use speak to an interesting point about this, you get a jury, - use speak to an interesting point. about this, you get a jury, and you -ive about this, you get a jury, and you give them — about this, you get a jury, and you give them the _ about this, you get a jury, and you give them the right— about this, you get a jury, and you give them the right to _ about this, you get a jury, and you give them the right to pass- about this, you get a jury, and you i give them the right to passjudgment

and south—east england. they fade away, skies clear, temperatures are likely to fall away, and gardeners and growers, take note, we could see a touch of light frost in sheltered western areas with low single figures. further north and west, we keep around 4 or 5 degrees, and that's because we have cloud and rain spilling in from another system, which will bring some wet weather as we go through the day. into the afternoon, perhaps the best of the sunshine in east anglia, the midlands and southern england, clouding over through north wales, north midlands, up into northern england, to close to the scottish borders, where there will be outbreaks of rain. the rain not too bad in northern ireland, but it will stay fairly persistent on and off through the north—west of scotland throughout the afternoon. the rain obviously having a little impact on the feel of the weather once again, only highs of 8—12 degrees, but we might see 15 celsius in the south—east with the best of the sunshine. there will be some rain for all of us at some point through thursday night into the early hours of friday morning, and then the high pressure really trying to influence its story. however, because of the position of the high, we still pick up this northerly wind, so we will be chasing

cloud amounts around. it's going to be a breezy day on friday, and that will have an impact on the feel of the weather once again. temperatures just below par, really, for the time of year. into the start of the weekend, the high pressure is continuing to nudge its way a little bit further north and east. this weather front could enhance some showery rain for a time across eastern scotland and maybe north—east england. it also, again, depends on the direction of the wind. because of the position of the high, we are continuing to drag in the wind from the north—east, so coming from scandinavia, a cooler source, and so that means that along north sea coasts, yes, at times, those temperatures struggling and there will be a few scattered showers. so west is best for not only sunshine, but also warmth this weekend.

hello, i'm christian fraser. you're watching the context on bbc news. gen zers in the us and uk are seeing their wage growth outstrip pay rises for other age groups. a recent economist article suggests this is impacting their attitude to work.

there are many things that are written about gen z — the zoomers, that were born in the mid—to—late �*905. the more un—charitable definition is that they are a cohort, defined by their anxiety. but the economist has just published an article that turns our impression but the economist has just published an article that turns our impression of the zoomers on its head. in america, the hourly pay growth among 16 to 2a—year—olds hit i3% year on year — a little more than double the rate for workers over 25 years of age. in the uk, using a different measure — people aged 18—21 saw their average pay rise by 15% — far outstripping pay rises among the other age groups. in respect of wage growth, as reflected in household incomes the average 25—year—old american has an annualfamily income of around $40,000 — that's over 50% more than the average baby—boomer at the same age. are the zoomers worthy of our pity? the millennials grew up thinking a job was a privilege, the zoomers the economist would suggest, treat it as a right,

and act accordingly — taking things slowly,
